How are you all? So it wasn’t a long run for me this week but a quick one with a 5k run test. I managed quicker, not PB 5k (set in 2024 on a flat straight course) but quicker than my last at the same course and I believe my fastest 5k I the last year 🎉

Morning all, hope you are well l. I have shared here that my coach’s coachees are all boys apart from me, we have all been doing a bike program called being on the power and I have had a cheeky #BeatTheBoys campaign going (with permission of the boys) well it’s FTP week and the results are in. I achieved a 10% FTP increase and beat five of the boys one just sneaked ahead of me with an 11% increase. The next down from me was a 4% increase so I am very proud of myself and wanted to share with you all. Happy Wednesday 🩷

Morning all, hope you are all having a good weekend and some good runs. Not a long run today but one that took a lot of mental toughness. The four hard rides a week are taking there tole and boy does it show up on a Sunday morning. Still got it done, still standing!

There was only one way to get it done this weekend, smiling! https://www.instagram.com/reel/DQ4WT21jLHO/?igsh=MTUwdTJ3NXR6ZmI1Mw==

Hello all, I hope you are well. I made it to the start line today, against all the struggles of the last few weeks, I haven’t shared publicly, here goes, this feel like a safe space for all the information. The day after my last half marathon (4 weeks ago) my Dad passed away the day before his funeral I got the news that I will need surgery to prevent further DVT and I spent Thursday this week I hospital with excessive bleeding. The doctor gave me some medication and the all clear, and encouragement, to race as it’s good for me an all aspects. It was hard fought for finish today, the fatigue from the above shows up at around 8k and it was a physical and mental fight to keep going. I kept going for he joy is running, it’s a tough route but I love it. Thank you all for the support I love having the space with you all 🩷
